Hello everyone,
I am as green as they come when it comes to rooting.....but low and behold, I did root my sd card with Honeycomb and all apps pretty much work well.
My issue is that I copied books to the sd card to "My files" folder. When I go to look for it, the file is not there. If I connect sd card to the computer, every file it there.
Are there some files that are hidden on the NOok? If so, how do I access them?
Thanks in advance.
bump as no response yet. Thanks

I've had my Captivate for a week now, rooted, tweaked and have it generally where I want it.
I'm having a problem that I discovered this evening. I went to preview a WMV file which I had sent to me this morning. I watched the video without problem this morning. When I went to preview the file again this evening, I click on the preview button on the gmail, and a pop up came up saying, "Fetching Attachment" which is the norm. Then the popup now says, "An SD card is required to download attachments"
I went in and started trying other attachments which I need for work and I get nothing but what I put above. Looks like the internal SD card is not being recognized. I went in and changed the internal from a hidden file to allow the Gmail program to "see" the SD card, ... No go... Still doesn't work.
It seems that there are a couple of people posting the same problem... Any ideas or suggestions???
I now have another app not working because it doesn't see the internal SD Card on my Captivate. Beautiful Widgets cannot funtion because it also needs an SD card............
I can see everything via Droid Explorer and when the phone is mounted as well.........
I need some help here to figure out what's up...........
Hey guys,
So I tried running CM7 off of my external SD card on my nook and it works beautifully!
However, I am little confused about how to go about storing files on the nook now. I understand that if I were to remove my SD card and reboot, the system would return to the vanilla OS?
I am looking to use CM7 as my main OS on the device and would like to place video, mp3 files, .epub files on it. How do I most easily accomplish this?
Can I still add files to the micro SD card, as long as I leave the image and boot file alone?
Thanks!!

I rooted my nook internally. When I use my card reader to install apps on my card they Dont show up on my nook. When the card is in the reader I can see them, but I can't see them when I open file explorer and look on the sdcard. How can I install APk files from my SD card? I also took my sdcard out of my rooted evo to try and load some of the same apps from my phone through titanium backup and none of them showed up in titanium backup. I cant figure out what's wrong......this worked fine on my nook tablet. Any ideas?
Is the card showing as mounted in the Nook?
Yes, it is mounted. Ive tried unmounting it, then took it out and put it back in and remounted it and its still not showing any apks that I put on it from my pc. I thought maybe it was the card, so I took my EVO card and tried it in my nook and it was the same thing. I can take the card and put it in my card reader and everything shows up on my pc. I even tried reformating the card wiping everything. I put the card in the nook and turned it on. I then unmounted the card and put it in my card reader and the only file that showed up was "LOST.DIR". I then tried to put an apk file in the lost.dir folder to see if I could find it once I put the card in the nook and when I opened up lost.dir there was nothing. I can take the same card out of the nook and put it in my EVO and go into file explorer and open lost.dir and I can see the apk file. So I know its something with the nook.
I can download apks from market, and from other places and I can install them without any problems. I am stumped!!!
So you can see the card when it is in the Nook, can see the lost.dir but not any files inside it. Is that correct?
This is not a fix, but have you considered installing DropBox and then just placing the files in the DropBox folder you designate on your desktop and then syncing with the Nook? You should see them then and be able to install.....
Come to find out, the sd card is bad. After I tried to put it back in my EVO to see if it would read again it would not. I also tried to write a big file onto the card with my card reader and it would show the file being on the card but it really wasnt as it never actually transfered the file to the card. Weird to say the least. I got another card and now all is well.
Good day,
I have a question about replacing my external microSD card on my GNote:
1) Can I simply swap out the SD card with a new one and reboot the phone?
Other than copying off my photos and music folders on the current external SD card, what else should I be looking to move over onto the new SD card once I insert it?
I am rooted on XLA1 ROM
I have not moved any downloaded Apps to the ext. SD card
I use the built in email and messaging Apps, I do not even know if\how to tell the mail app to store mail on the external card or if it does this automatically if it detects the presence of one. (Kind of a sub question I guess)
I use Dialer one (I do not think it matters but....)
I have CWM backups to external SD as well as Titanium Pro scheduled batch backups. have not looked yet to see where these are stored and what the folders are named/
The current SD card came out of my HTC HD2 where I had done a few android builds running off SD and therefore see plenty of android created folders that I am sure are as a result of my attempts to try out Android when I was a Windows Mobile user on the HD 2.
Thanks in advance for any answers giving to this matter.

You shouldn't have to do anything. Most programs, if they don't find the file structure they're looking for in the place they're looking, will recreate it.
Thanks for the answer.
Hi. A friend of mine was moving pictures from the internal sd of her phone to a external sd using Samsung's My Files app. But now they've seem to be gone, all that's left on the internal sd is some files she didn't move. However, on the external SD the folders (DCIM, Pictures, etc) are present but empty.
I can't seem to find the reason for those files to disappear. I saw in a post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/tried-to-photo..) that they could be in lost.dir folder. I have to check that out since I don't have the phone nearby, but I would like to get some suggestions for my problem.
I don't know if the files could be in the internal SD but hidden. The same way in the external SD. Or the worst case scenario, lost at all.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. use a root file explorer like ES File Manager (free) and show all hidden files/folders
2. i think your friend didn´t copy the pictures, but delete them (worst case), so they aren´t there anymore.
Good luck
